I am wondering how the Plural-Field generic is to be rendered in the REST OpenSocial 1.0 API specifi
- by DaveGrahamOrg
In the OpenSocial Data specificaiton 1.0 for a Person object (social profile data) it includes the use of a generic called Plural-Field.
The spec can be found at:
http://opensocial-resources.googlecode.com/svn/spec/1.0/Social-Data.xml#Person
In the 1.0 data specification there is no XSD and no examples showing the use of this generic Plural-Field.
After puzzeling the spec for some time I think I might understand the user of this generic. I was hoping that someone could confirm or correct my understanding.
For example the accounts field is a generic Plural-Field<Account> while the activities field is Plural-Field <string>. Am I right in assuming that the result XML would look like:
<accounts>
<Plural-Field>
<primary>true</primary>
<type>ntlm</type>
<value>
<Account>
<domain>MYDOMAIN</domain>
<userid>MYDOMAIN\davegraham</userid>
<username>davegraham</username>
</Account>
</value>
</Plural-Field>
<Plural-Field>
<primary>false</primary>
<type>claims</type>
<value>
<Account>
<domain>i:0#.f|claimsDomain</domain>
<userid>i:0#.f|claimsDomain|davegraham</userid>
<username>davegraham</username>
</Account>
</value>
</Plural-Field>
</accounts>
<activities>
<Plural-Field>
<primary>true</primary>
<type>ntlm</type>
<value>cycling</value>
</Plural-Field>
<Plural-Field>
<primary>false</primary>
<type>claims</type>
<value>swiming</value>
</Plural-Field>
</activities>
Am I right in my interpretation of the spec?
